White House: Miniter’s Bombshell Scoop Is an “Utter Fabrication”
The White House responds to the latest ludicrous right wing fake outrage: White House: ‘Fabrication’ That Obama Called Off Bin Laden Raid.
In a new book previewed by the Daily Caller, author Richard Miniter alleges that Obama called off the raid three times at the urging of senior advisor Valerie Jarrett, before finally authorizing the mission.
“That is an utter fabrication. It seems pretty clear that Mr. Miniter doesn’t know what he’s talking about,” White House spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters Monday.
“Ms. Jarrett, like the vast majority of the president’s senior staff, was not read in on the operation on the mission against Osama bin Laden,” Earnest said.
